The “GCF” is a 501c3 that grants the ninth life to cats in need. We reduce owner surrenders through medical education, adopter support, and shelter fundraising
Physically disabled, medically dependent, and senior cats are disproportionately euthanized due to a lack of essential resources when surrendered to shelters. 42%* of cat surrenders are caused by owners feeling ill-equipped to handle an aging animal and their medical or behavioral problems stemming from such. Seeing as 46%* of owners learned to care for cats through word of mouth, we utilize 100% of our donations to keep people and their beloved cats together
